Also skeleton-format. Will also eventually probably maybe be put into proper format. Gosh I'm lazy. Following after Relax, the conversation that would occur on the subject of Kashii being together with Shi, as well as side comments. Soyokaze, Eri, and Abe belong to her, Kashii belongs to me. Not everything that's been uploaded on this fic was collaborated like this one and Conversation, but some were and then written out properly.


Friend: also, is kashii actually doing shi?

Friend: Oh, it dose appear he is.

Friend: Wow

Cougar: Bitch deer.

Cougar: And.

Cougar: She started it.

Cougar: For once it wasn't him who started it. FOR ONCE. *flips table*

Soyokaze: You gave into the insistent seduction of a child? Are you joking?

Kashii: Aaand that's why I'd rather you heard it from me than the mole.

Friend: There is no saving him from this one

Cougar: Didn't expect there was

Soyokaze: I'm sorry, I just have trouble reconciling the idea that your willpower is so nonexistent and your taste so deviant that it ever felt like seduction in the first place.

Kashii: *hangs head* Do your worst.

Soyokaze: My worst? You have no concept of what that is. It makes the castration and maiming you're picturing in your head seem pleasant.

Kashii: ...

Soyokaze: But what is going to really hurt is what I'm about to say. You're just repeating the same pattern that you have been your entire life. Either you refuse any sort of attachment or pick the most emotionally shattered person available to you.

Kashii: Aye...

Soyokaze: Maybe you have delusions of being able to help her, of the redemptive power of love. But tell me, what is it that you love about her? The way she self destructively trains, her fixation on inappropriately older men, her inability to socialize normally with her peers? How about her glaring lack of loyalty to this country? Tell me Kashii, let me hear your story that can move even my cold heart.

Kashii: I think there is nothing that can move your cold heart.

Soyokaze: Try, give me your best shot. Tell me why I should give you my consent.

Kashii: *Shifts uncomfortably* She... produces a warm feeling. One I never felt with Nishimura. I'm... she makes me happy. I haven't felt happy in a long time. And, Saiko loves her.

Soyokaze: You did the same for me once.

Kashii: It was different with you.

Soyokaze: Because I understood the place of a teacher and a mentor.

Kashii: Aye.

Soyokaze: Or do you not recall trying your very best to seduce me?

Kashii: I seduced everyone then. Or tried to.

Soyokaze: That is true, for years that was the case. And I never once considered it. Never Kashii.

Kashii: I'm not asking you to forgive me. What I've done cannot be forgiven, I'm very aware.

Soyokaze: I'm not asking for you to apologize. I think you understood that would be the case from the beginning.

Kashii: Aye, I did.

Soyokaze: Then let us end this. You could not have shamed me more if you had defected, to me you are dead. I will not acknowledge you in any way from this day forward but I will watch.

Kashii: ... aye, sensei.

Soyokaze: If I see anything that leads me to believe that Saiko would benefit from being an orphan then that will become the case.

Kashii: ...understood...

Soyokaze: You may go.

Kashii: *slight bow, leaves wordlessly*

Friend: And that would be that

Cougar: I'm thinking

Cougar: he would have preferred a beating

Friend: Thats his problem.

Friend: She'd normally kill someone for what he did.

Cougar: Then he got off easy

Friend: Letting him off with a shunning is a concession to the fact that she cares and he might straighten up if only for the reality check.

Friend: Easy is a relative statement. Given the way Kashii conducts himself he's probably gotten by in the village as well as he has because of her patronage.

Friend: Internal affairs: What the hell? I could have sworn I had another file on my desk.

Cougar: I wouldn't doubt that

Cougar: He's an ambiguous individual

Friend: Who does not fill out paperwork or bow to authority properly.

Cougar: paperwork he fills out, bowing to proper authority.. maybe not so much

Friend: Also, Soyokaze is being dead honest. She'll never recognize him again even if he does straighten up.

Cougar: And if he doesn't?

Friend: If he steps out of line in any way again she'll deal with him as she would a stranger.

Cougar: Mmmh

Friend: She could do it at the moment if she had to

Friend: And she will if anything goes on that endangers Saiko.

Friend: Like if Shi tries and of her bullshit training methods with the kid.

Friend: *any

Cougar: That wouldn't be tolerated even with him

Friend: I'm just saying

Cougar: he intends to shelter saiko away from ninja stuff as long as he can, so that she won't want to endanger herself with the risks that come with being a shinobi. Overprotective papa wolf.

Friend: lol

Cougar: Sides she looks better in frilly dresses

Friend: So, would the part where Soyokaze said she made him happy when she trained him have hurt? Especially given what's become of his relationship with Shi?

Friend: *he made her happy

Cougar: A bit, since there was no true argument on that note. But he wasn't referring to training in that regard

Friend: Soyokaze took more of an interest in Kashii than just training and their relationship had lasted since that time and grown personal

Cougar: If he thought of her as -anything- outside professional sensei-student relationship...

Cougar: it would probably be as an older sister

Friend: Right, because she kept strict lines drawn in certain departments

Cougar: That or a second mother.

Cougar: Probably closer to second mother.

Friend: So she had the feels, she just didn't allow them to stray into improper areas

Cougar: lol she had the feels. srsly?

Friend: Indeed

Friend: All sorts of emotions, many of which she'd be years away from giving names

Cougar: Interesting.

Friend: None of them were sexual though

Friend: He was younger than her and the nature of their relationship precluded that

Cougar: That information would have thrown him for a loop if he'd ever learned it.

Cougar: And probably send him into hiding forever.

Cougar: FOREVER

Friend: In her mind its worse than a normal predator taking advantage of someone when there is a relationship like that in place.

Cougar: Indeed

Friend: Well, he'll probably find out from Abe. Sort of.

Cougar: Sort of

Cougar: Abe and Soyo were the only two people he was especially worried about

Abe: Well, it looks like you have a handle on things now and Saiko is old enough that she'll be able to look after herself soon. I'm out.

Cougar: And it was only soyo who actually frightens him

Abe: Just to be clear, this is it. I dont know you, you dont know me.

Kashii: yay I've been disowned by two people over the same subject. Saw that coming. /sarcasm

Cougar: Abe never especially liked him to begin with, the loss is not great with this one. *yoda*

Abe: Yeah, I saw Soyokaze-san cried over it the day it happened.

Cougar: But soyo

Cougar: Despite his fear of her

Cougar: his respect for her was much greater

Friend: Where as with Abe it was the kid reaching out and making certain his former sensei was okay instead of the other way around.

Cougar: Losing the respect she had for him would be a hard blow that would stay with him for a long time

Friend: I think Kashii would probably notice Abe's absence in his life after a while.

Cougar: No doubt

Cougar: Though they've has so little interaction officially i'm not even sure where their relationship stands

Friend:Kashii: Wait, what was the diaper rash cream called? Shit, I threw out the empt. *picks up phone to call abe, then remembers*

Cougar: Lmao

Cougar: She's two she's likely potty trained

Cougar: and not on formula either

Cougar: just minced solids

Cougar: At the end of the day, he's had a strange relationship with all three of his students, individually.

Cougar: And it brings him back to his thoughts when they assigned him the team.

Cougar: What the -hell- were the higher ups thinking, giving /him/ a team?

Cougar: Although back then it was due to lack of confidence.

Cougar: Now it's because he does a pretty good job of fucking up his life.

Cougar: No more Soyo also means no more Eri

Cougar: He actually liked the kid

Cougar: And treated him like crystal GOD FORBID the kid get hurt and report to mama

Friend: lol

Eri: KAAAAASHIIIII! Are you really a pedophile? *seems weirdly excited by the idea* Because then my first mission can be to arrest you!

Kashii: Iiii. Am going home now.

Eri: I'll get written up for excessive brutality! *does a little happy dance*

Kashii: *facepalm* How about I distract you with the prospect of icecream instead?

Eri: Deal.

Soyokaze: *Soyokaze walks up and collects him*

Kashii: :c

Soyokaze: Pardon his intrusion. It wont happen again.

Kashii: ...Right. Uh. *backs away and leaves* *spends the rest of the day sulking*

Soyokaze: *Soyokaze does not react significantly, he's probably seen her do the same when eri pesters strangers*

Cougar: Surprised she wouldn't comment about allowing a pedophile to interact with her son.

Cougar: Especially considering Eri even knows that word.

Friend: Probably from Abe actually.

Abe: Kotone was literally throwing herself at me and despite us being the same age and my liking her I never laid a hand on her. I can't abide that kind of violation of trust and knowing what those pedophiles did to her gives me nightmares.

Soyokaze: Shhh, I understand, have some tea.

Eri: *spying*

Cougar: Kashii killed all of them. He was unhappy too.

Cougar: Sent in a report, too

Cougar: A thorough, properly detailed one.

Friend: Yeah, then he starts doing it with Shi.

Cougar: To be fair Kotone was like 12 and it was indicated this had been going on for quite some time

Friend: Dude, not the point

Friend: He gets mad at other people for getting it on with kids

Friend: Then does one of his own students

Cougar: He is aware.

Cougar: He is very aware of all the wrong things he's done and is doing. And he has no intention of justifying himself.

Friend: Like that helps.

Cougar: Nothing will help.

Friend: Very true.

Cougar: And he is aware that he has fucked up pretty good.

Friend: And is doing nothing about it.

Friend: And lost the two more supportive figures in his life outside of his parents.

Friend: Who are okay with what he's doing god knows why.

Cougar: They are a very open people. They were the ones that raised him after all and you can see how he turned out.

Cougar: Though ikaderp didn't help.


On the note of pedophilia as the topic, Kashii is 21 and Shi is 16; a five year difference. If we're going to be technical, the term would be ephebophila. She's 16, not 6. /o/
